I noticed this sign last Sunday while enjoying Adams Avenue Unplugged. Village Vino is a new wine bar slated to open soon on Adams in Kensington.

Rita Pirkl, native San Diegan, Kensington resident, and owner of Village Vino, has held executive positions in sales and marketing at Chateau Montelena Winery and Peju Winery, both in Napa Valley.

Focusing on small family owned and operated producers, Village Vino will serve limited production wines by the taste, glass and bottle. Small plates and food pairings will be offered as well.

Educational seminars and classes for wine lovers, from neophytes to connoisseurs, are also in the works.

As the sign says, Village Vino is slated for a Summer 2012 opening.
